چکیده

Abstract The Global Positioning System (GPS) has been with us now for over a decade, providing positioning information across a broad range of . applications. In the geographical information systems area the potential of GPS technology is really only just starting to be realized The major areas of use have been for mapping the locations of features particularly for asset management This papa describes the technology integration projects being u n d e r t a k e n Geomatic Engineering. that explores the potential of integrated technologies for space-time monitoring of any phenomena. A prototype DGPSIGIS system was developed using light-weight inexpensive, off-the shelf parts. The development of this type of technology promises to revolutionise the way we can acquire spacetime data, providing us with an expanded vision of how to monitor the environment and manage all types of assets This paper also describes a few of the issues that arise when using the Global Positioning System to acquire data for Geographic Information Systems (GIS).
